Retro Soul channels the golden era of Motown and classic R&B with effortless charm. This instrumental sets a feel-good, hopeful tone from the first bars, blending a toe-tapping groove with guitar leads and a smooth, swinging rhythm section. Bass, electric guitar, and warm drums lay the foundation, while lively brass—trumpet, trombone, saxophone—punch through the mix, giving it that unmistakable vintage swagger. Textures from Hammond organ, bells, and bright strings sweep in as the track builds, adding depth without crowding the melody.

The result is upbeat, polished, and authentic: a retro soul sound designed to lift moods and bring energy to any edit. Its progression stays light and uncluttered, making it an easy fit under dialogue or for scene transitions.

Perfect as background music for fashion content, brand films, lifestyle spots, or any project that wants to nod to classic soul with a modern shine. Equally at home in upbeat ad campaigns, retro reels, or feel-good podcasts. Royalty-free music for versatile commercial use.

Modern funk soul track. Building, of course, from the rhythm section up, you get a super solid drum beat with a deep funk bassline and electric guitar strums. Prominent vocal noises add a different characteristic to the percussiveness of the groove, and a sharp synth lead gives you the hook. A little bit different, offering a strong dancefloor vibe with genuine funk style.

60s style soul pop instrumental. A clean electric guitar riff repeated over a classic swinging sixties, soul style backing of drums, bass, electric keyboard and horns. Simple and effective as backing for any suitably themed retro scene, it stays constant throughout, adding slight variety by dropping instruments out to create a break section. Subtle strings add a cinematic touch. Upbeat and toe-tapping stuff.

A mellow funk-soul track with retro tendancies. Unmistakably 80s in feel thanks to the keyboard and synth leads, this has an immediate cool groove from the laid back beat and funk guitar. Very atmospheric and chic throughout, with a modern cutting edge urban vibe.

Modern Future R&B track with super smooth vibes. Chopped vocal hits attract most of the attention as they pan around the aural spectrum, but it's the background that creates the groove. Deep bass and light drums make up the rhythm, while gentle pads and soft mallet hits give it an almost tropical feel. Upbeat but relaxed, it's a fresh and cool take on an urban genre.

PRO

Synth heavy funk track, with a strong 80s influence. Electronic space age tones mix with classic soul keyboard, punchy, driving drums and wah guitar to create an upbeat disco track with a retro vibe, maintaining a modern feel with glitch effects and production quality. Expect lots of granular bass, digital arpeggios and warps in a classy piece that manages to be both upbeat and chilled at the same time, with one foot in the past.
